Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 cup flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
2/3 cup dark brown sugar
2 tbsp wheat germ
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1/3 tsp baking soda
1 pinch salt
2 large eggs
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 cups carrots, grated (about 4 medium carrots)
1/2 cup canned crushed pineapple
paper, muffin liners

Directions:

Whisk the flours with the brown sugar,(all dry ingredients): wheat germ, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt in a medium bowl.
In another (smaller) bowl, whisk the eggs, then add in the oil, and vanilla extract.
Fold the wet into dry ingredients with a spatula. Stir in the carrots and pineapple just until evenly moist; the batter will be very thick.
Divide the batter evenly among the lined baking cups.
Bake at 350 degrees F. for about 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Best served warm.
